Abstract

A spray type retort sterilizer comprises: a tank (1) containing trays (2) stacked in a plurality of steps and each having an object (3) mounted thereon for treatment; spraying parts (4) to spray atomized hot water or cooling water onto objects (3) to be treated which are mounted on the trays (2) in all steps in the tank (1); a circulation passage (5) through which water collected in the lower part of the tank (1) flows under pressure via a pump (6) and a heat exchanger (5) to be blown again from the spraying part (4); and an additional system for controlling internal pressure of the tank comprising a system (11) for introducing pressurized air into the tank (1) and an exhaust system (12) to exhaust gas from the tank (1) so as to prevent instantaneous boiling of droplike hot water when atomized and blown to the objects (3) to be treated on the trays (2) arranged in the tank (1).
